Aurora Photo Editing Software Review (Closed)

Meet Lights Crafts:

Light Crafts is a company that believes passionately in the power of digital photography. We believe everyone’s photos should look great, and that getting them to look that way should be simple.

Light Crafts knows that photo management — the process of importing, organizing, editing, storing and sharing, and should be intuitive and powerful.

Introducing Aurora:

Light Crafts just launched a very unique photo editing and management software called Aurora.

This software enables users in:

• Visual photo editing: Unique relight tool, straighten, adjust color strength and warmth, crop, zoom and adjust red-eye in a simple, intuitive and visual way.
• Organizing and viewing of photos: Import photos from your camera or computer, re-arrange and re-name them, then tag and rate favorites for easy viewing and retrieval.
• Sharing and publishing: Email, print, and connect directly to photo sharing, social networking and accounts from within Aurora, making it easy to share select photos online on sites like Flickr and Facebook.
• Online back-up: Store photos safely online, with an online back-up plan. Mom Approved!

Taking perfect pictures can be a daunting task, you always want the perfect result. It’s nice to have a quick fix for poor lighting and red eye.

I recently had the opportunity to try Aurora and was pleasantly surprised at its ease of use. The best editing options for me were the Red Eye remover and the Relighting option.

Red Eye: I often have issues with my boys’ having red eyes in pictures. Using Aurora, I selected a photo from my files (uploaded in Aurora), clicked on Edit, and then hit Red Eye. The Aurora program automatically detects the red eye in the picture and offers you a fixed image. It’s quick and easy!

Relighting: Unless you’re a professional, you rarely have perfect lighting of your little subject. Aurora offers a magical feature called Relight or Auto Relight. It essentially “turns on” the light in your photo. It’s like instant sunshine.

Mom Improvements:

Overall the software is easy to use and intelligent with its unique automatic fixes. I wish the program had the ability to add borders and text to further personalize pictures similar to other photo editing programs.

Buy It:

Aurora is available for purchase at the Lightcrafts store for $19.95 (regularly $39.95).
